The UEFA Euro 2024 is officially in full swing, with a few matches already gone by. Match 5 of the tournament saw the Netherlands shake off a spirited attack from Poland, with Denmark set to take on Slovenia shortly. However, the final match of the day will have England kick off their campaign against Serbia. In the England squad, Jordan Pickford is the undisputed number 1 goalkeeper.

Pickford plays for Everton and has been a solid goalie for the Merseyside team, as he has been for the Three Lions. England fans would want Pickford at the top of his game in the Euros.

Accompanying Pickford in Germany is his wife Megan Davison, whom he married in 2020. The story of their romance is a fairly sweet one, as they were childhood lovers. They began dating when they were 14 and have been going strong ever since.

England has always underachieved in international tournaments with the talent that they have. To date, the team has only won one World Cup and is still chasing their first European trophy.

The 2024 squad looks to be England’s most talented and star-studded, and Pickford is a vital cog in the line-up. The Everton goalkeeper is best known for his lightning-fast speed and ability to save from close range. His agility will go a long way in determining England’s fate in the tournament.
